Control and design of fiber birefringence characteristics based on selective-filled hybrid photonic crystal fibers
We demonstrated a kind of birefringence-controllable hybrid photonic crystal fibers (HPCFs) by selectively infiltrating air holes of PCFs with index-tunable liquids processing higher index than silica background. Detailed theoretical investigations on mode couplings from fundamental core mode to hig...

We demonstrated a kind of birefringence-controllable hybrid photonic crystal fibers (HPCFs) by selectively infiltrating air holes of PCFs with index-tunable liquids processing higher index than silica background. Detailed theoretical investigations on mode couplings from fundamental core mode to high-index-liquid-rod modes and birefringence properties of several HPCFs were presented. Strong wavelength dependence of phase and group birefringence was found, and HPCFs with different arrangements of high index liquid rods possess distinct birefringence characteristics. Then, the Sagnac interferometers (SIs) based on two typical HPCFs with different liquid-rod arrangements were theoretically and experimentally studied. The results indicated the SIs exhibit different transmission spectra and temperature responses due to the distinct birefringence features of HPCFs. A temperature sensitivity of −45.8 nm/°C at 56.5 °C was achieved using one HPCF, and a sensitivity of −11.6 nm/°C from 65 °C to 85 °C was achieved using the other HPCF. The thermal tunable HPCFs with birefringence-controllable properties will provide great potential for a variety of tunable optical devices and sensors. |
